Partitioning the interval [6,11] into n equally-spaced subintervals gives n rectangles of width \Delta x=\dfrac{11-6}n=\dfrac5n and of heights determined by the right endpoints of each subinterval.

If a=x_1=6, then x_2=6+\dfrac5n, x_3=6+2\dfrac5n, and so on, up to b=x_{n+1}=6+n\dfrac5n=11. Because we're using the right endpoints, the approximation will consider x_2,\ldots,x_{n+1}

The definite integral is then approximated by

\displaystyle\int_6^{11}(1-5x)\,\mathrm dx\approx\sum_{i=2}^{n+1}f(x_i)\Delta x=\sum_{i=2}^{n+1}\left(1-\left(6+(i-1)\dfrac5n\right)\dfrac5n

You have

\displaystyle\sum_{i=2}^{n+1}\left(1-5\left(6+(i-1)\dfrac5n\right)\dfrac5n=\sum_{i=2}^{n+1}\left(-29-\dfrac{25}n(i-1)\right)\dfrac5n
=\displaystyle-{145}n\sum_{i=2}^{n+1}1-\dfrac{125}{n^2}\sum_{i=2}^{n+1}(i-1)
=-145-\dfrac{125(n^2+n)}{2n^2}
=-\dfrac{145}2-\dfrac{125}{2n}

To check that this is correct, let's make sure the sum converges to the exact value of the definite integral. As n\to\infty, you have the sum converging to -\dfrac{145}2.

Meanwhile,

\int_6^{11}(1-5x)\,\mathrm dx=\left[x-\dfrac52x^2\right]_{x=6}^{x=11}=-\dfrac{415}2

so we're done.
